Giallo a Milano

2009 7min

The Chinatown in Milan is highly problematic, recording several murders a year, perpetrated with meat-axes, in the streets, by the light of the sun. When an Italian guy asks a Chinese girl's hand in marriage, this triggers a domino-like plot of confrontations among a crowd of characters. Starting from the focus on one of the largest and oldest Chinatowns in Europe, the film carries the spectators into a universal metaphor on hatred and dreams between West and China.
